I just saw the Fedora election results, and was surprised to learn
there
had been an election. After some digging I figured out what happened.
Robyn sends her announce emails to: announce@, devel-announce@,
test-announce@
I saw the nomination email and the election results email, but no
announcement of the elections being open.
This is because Ankur Sinha didn't send the announcement to the same
set
of lists. I am apparently not on announce, only on devel-announce
I think this is not good - every contributor should be subscribed to
announce list (with cla_done).
Emails like this should see a wide distribution, at the *least* they
should be sent to the same set of lists that the other related emails
are sent to. I suspect that the election turnout would have been
greater
if this had happened.
I agree. Looking on Robyn's statistics, seems it wasn't affected
compared to F18 elections but definitely - more votes, better. Still
I'd like to say thanks to Ankur as it was probably worst possible time
to begin as Election Wrangler - from scheduling side etc.
